Some of the ultra-Republican sheets are
seeking to make it appear that Mayor
O'Brien, of Boston, is responsible for the
condition of affairs that make it possible
for Slugger Sullivan to represent American
aristocracy before the Prince of Wales. 1t
will be observed that none of the Boston
Republican papers is using that argument
in the campaign. Under the circumstances,
it would be an unfortunate mistake for
their side. All Bostonians are ready to vote
for Sullivan

Mr.. Lamar's appointment to the Supreme
bench is causing several Republican ex-
changes much uneasiness, or they pretend
that it is. The New York Press, the Chicago
NetCs, and the Philadelphia Press are
making bitter fight ON him, and saying
some very foolish things. These Republi-
can organs foresee that Blaine will attempt,
as he did in 1886, to introduce sectional
prejudice into the next Presidential contest,
and they are getting in line. Mr.. Lamars
confirmation, in itself, is matter of no
interest whatever to them.

An old-Fashioned Yankee Pastor.

From the Nelo York Herald (End)
Plymouth church is an old-fashioned Yankee
church and should have an ld-fashioned Yankee
pastor-a pous, God fearing, Industrious man,

for the auction sale of pews, but caring greatly
for the souls of men If such a man can be

Brooklyn, already noted for her churches,

The Marcy Avenue Baptists are construct
ing magnificent edifice, and one that will
begin new era in the plans for church
buildings. One-half is given over to the
auditorium, the other half, ON the ground
floor, includes a church parlor, lecture
room, prayer-meeting room, reading room,
library and kitchen, while on the second
floor are the MAN, Sunday school room and
seventeen class rooms. Aside from these
things, many architectural conveniences

Good Postal Suggestions

A strong effort will be made during the
present session of Congress to secure the
passage of law authorizing the govern
ment to again issue fractional currency.
Although there are great many objections
to this kind of currency there is a good deal
to be said in its favor. The strongest reason
urged in its behalf is that by means of it
fractional parts of dollar can be remitted
by letter with far less trouble, and less
danger of loss, than they can in coin. Of
course postal notes can be used for REMIT
ing small sums, and also postal stamps, in
stead of the weighty silver, but the notes
are not always obtainable by people living
in the rural districts and postage stamps
stick together and are therefore, often use
less to those who receive them.
Fractional currency answers admirably
for the purpose indicated, and is in every
respect more satisfactory than postal notes,
silver or postage stamps. A few million
dollars of it would be all that would be nee
essary to meet the wants of the public, and
it would very satisfactorily fill the place
which the government is now trying to fill
with postal notes.
"a kOoOts,O Oh AOul
mail matter, viz: seeds, bulbs, ETC., from 16c.
per pound to &c., the rate that prevailed
prior to 1874, is another thing that will be
urged upon the attention of Congress at an
early day 1t only costs &C. pound to send
such articles through the Canadian mails.
The purpose is to give the people every ad-
vantage which the government can afford
in the way of transmitting articles through
the mails, and to relieve them as much as
possible from the necessity of patronizipg
the express companies. OF course if the
rates of postage on bulky articles are high
such articles will be turned over to the ex-
press companies.
Still another change that it is proposed to
ask Congress to make is the reduction of
the fee on small money orders to Sc.
These suggested improvements, in con-
nection with the postal law, are worthy of
the attention of members of Congress. If
they can be made, Congressman will receive
the hearty approval of their constituents
The average Congressman probably does not
| fully realize how important it is that the
| postal system shall have as few objection
able features as possible, and that when
changes in it for the better can be made
there should be no delay in making them
| When they can be made to see what the
| people want they are not slow to act.

Smoking in America..and England.

"One of the features of Ameri-
can street life that strikes an En-
glishman on first arriving here
most forcibly," said a young Lon
doner, whose acquaintance | made
at the Palmer House an evening
or two ago, "is the abundance OF
cigars. | was simply astounded
to observe, Oh my arrival here,
teamsters, porters, cabmen, aye,
even peddlers with hand carts,
smoking cigars. In England, you
know, where cigars cost just as
much as they do here, a man who
never smokes anything on the
street but a cigar is looked upon
as an epicure, and, if he is not a
gentleman of landed property, is
regarded as q very extrayagant
fellow. What do we smoke?
Why, pipes, Of course. / know
fellows-London fellows, too
who are worth all the way from
f100 to f1,000 year, who are in
veterate smokers, and who yet re-
gard cigars with about as much
reverence as you do diamonds, nc
doubt. The most extravagant OF
them smoke two cigars at Sd, OIL
&c, apiece per day. No; l must
say that the princely extravaganza
of the American smoker, who
though he may be too poor to buy
himself a warm overcoat when the
cold winds COM, will scorn tc
smoke pipe on the street, floor:
me. In London, if a costermongel
or a cabman appeared among hi:
comrades with a lighted cigar ir
his mouth, he would be hooted
from one end of the street to the
other for endeavoring to assume
the luxury his circumstances ir
life did not entitle him to."-Chi
